Description: Dr. D.P. Wilson is the former consulting psychologist at the Federal Penitentiary at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, where he has studied 10,000 cases of marriage. He is now the consulting psychologist of the Los Angeles Institute of Family Relations. One of Dr. Wilson's many claims is that, "Marriage of an educated man to an ignorant woman will succeed, whereas the marital ties between an educated woman and a man inferior to her mentally will ultimately be severed by divorce."
